Just a thought. What-If "XP-67N(avy)" in the future.

A naval version would be splendid. The Moonbat looks like it belongs on a carrier.

Following WIP updates.

Carrier Take-Off works fine. Folding wings and tail hook in the works


Rocket Armament. Possible also adding to wing mounting.
Other armaments coming:  Drop Tanks, Bombs, and Napalm.

"Where did you get a Info Zflyer48, I never Seen the XP-47N Variant before."

Just my imagination wandering to alternate "What-If".
Just as weapons will be "What-If" based on P-38 weapon loadout.
And, Bombasway's suggestion for 2 seater was there in the back of my mind.
 
The potential of this aircraft was waylaid by bad engines and the Jet Age. IMHO.
